This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

It is. But if you fully and openly disclose that's what you're doing when selling a individual a personalized product for literally their own enjoyment, I don't see the harm.

Sure, the client isn't going to tell people that weren't there that it's all generated, but what's the problem? Someone might believe you were media-attractive 10 years ago at your wedding?

Photography probably put a lot of portrait painters out of business, but it didn't destroy painting as an art form.

Grab that bag, man.

Says anyone without money. If it were so cringe more people would be giving it up when they recieve it but noone ever really likes giving it up once it's been had.
